Laxman...

The kids' bus has arrived. Bring them in.

The kids? Or the bus? - The kids.

Now...? - Yes. Now.

Which means...?

Laxman, go out and bring the children in. Now.

What are you doing? Let the gifts be. Babu will pack them.

No, Sumi, let me also learn this.

I want to personally pack the first gift we'll give to our grandson.

Grandson? First let your own son grow up.

Till then, amuse yourself with the kids you call your grandchildren.

Hurry... your little friends have arrived.

Welcome! Welcome! (All Cheering)

Come to me...!

(Laughing)

Look! There are gifts for you! Go and collect them. Quick!

Hello, son.

See that air-filled house over there? How about jumping with me?

No, I suffer from polio. I can't even walk properly.

Never mind. I'm with you. We'll have fun together. C'mon.

Hey Sumi! This is how the three of us will rock someday!

You, me and Adi's son!

Can't you make it quicker, mister?

I own a camel. It's not a horse!

As if the camel knows that! Make it faster! Good!

Pooja...

(Humming)

For me? - No, it's for me!

It's a bit tight. But when I step out in a ghagra-choli...

the cat-whistles people let out... - Ha ha ha! Very funny!

It looks expensive. - No. Worth just 45,000.

Just 45,000 ? That's very reasonable.

Try it on. - How can I wear it?

Why not? - The henna's still wet.

So take it off. - No, I applied it for you.

Dad chartered a plane for just one day. We haven't time to go and exchange it.

But how can I wear it, Adi?

Want me... to dress you?

Want me to dress you up? - No!

Why? I'll close my eyes, I promise. I'll play blind. That's it.

No, Adi... no way! - I swear it on daddy.

You know, I wouldn't take a false oath on daddy.

"Go into hiding..."

"Hide somewhere..."

"My crazy heart will still find you."

"I'm moving away, I'm leaving..."

"I'm better of being away from you."

"There's mischief in your heart."

"My heart... I can't control anymore."

"Go into hiding..."

"Hide somewhere..."

"My crazy heart will find you."

"I feel so shy."

"You ought not to be shy of those you love."

"Go away..."

"Go on, my love."

"There's deceit in the air..."

"I can barely contain my desires."

"Don't make my heart beat wildly, my love..."

"don't give me a scare, my love..."

"Come to me..."

"stop being stubborn"

"Don't please squeeze my arm."

"Look..."

"There's a scare in my heart."

"But what are you afraid of?"

"Let me go..."

"Stop acting crazy."

"I know it deep down in my heart..."

"My obsession, you will surely understand."

"I haven't a clue of it..."

"If you could explain it to me, sweetheart?"

"Don't act so innocent now."

"I implore you..."

"Let me go."

"Go into hiding..."

"Hide somewhere..."

"My crazy heart will look for you."

Adi! It's perfect! - Isn't it?

And I think you're more perfect.

I love you. - I love you, too.

What happened? - The bite!

When did I bite you? - The watch, I mean!

It's already 11. I got to be in Mumbai by 2, Adi!

Why're you so worried? The flight literally belongs to my old man today!

(Laughing)

Mind-blowing, dad! The trip was mind-blowing!

Not that one, that one is raw. Eat this... this is a ripe one.

What difference, dad...? They're the same colour.

It isn't the colour, son. It's the aroma.

You tell a good mango from its smell. Here you are.

Useless fellow! You've been coming to the farm for the last 25 years.

And you still can't tell a good mango!

With an expert like you around, why must I worry? This is mind-blowing!

There's a crate for your friends. Don't forget it.

And what did your friends have to say? Who else went with you to Jaisalmer?

Well, there was Hari, Raj, Happy...

Your mother was furious. But I side-stepped the issue.

You didn't tell her that I chartered a plane for you, did you?

No, I didn't. Am I out of my mind to tell Mother India about it, dad?

You know what Mother India would have to say.

Aditya! You've blown up 1.5 million in just a single day!

Ishwar, how could you give this useless son of yours a chartered plane?

"Ishwar, this boy spends money like water"

"And we've never been so liberal even with water"

Mother India!

(Laughing)

Sumi... so you've overheard?

Yes, she has overheard! Do something, quick!

Mom, it wasn't dad's fault. I insisted on a chartered plane.

Yes, Sumi. He had promised to take his friends to Jaisalmer on a chartered plane.

And how could he break a promise? - Why...?

Haven't you taught him how to break promises?

You're so good at breaking promises. - Me...?

Yes. You make promises and break them every day.

"That's it, Sumi. I'm going to stop spending money on Adi's indulgences"

"I promise. I also promise not to buy him another bike"

"And his everyday parties at 5-star hotels are off... I promise"

Ma, I... - Better if you don't talk to me!

I was talking about this tree. When it was one year old...

It has grown up. And it also realises its responsibilities.

The gardener looked after it. So it is repaying a debt by bearing fruit now.

Do you understand? - Aditya will bear it too... the fruit.

Sumi, Aditya has changed. I mean, he's in the process of changing.

Have some patience, Ma. I... - For how long?

20 years more? Or 25? - Taking a dig, eh?

Here, look at my photographs! They'll appear in top magazines.

Producers are betting their shirts to sign me. You'll see...

Why, Adi? Why would the producers sign you?

Well.. because I'm good-looking...

I'm rich and... - You're lucky!

Yes, I'm lucky. - Wait and see, Sumi.

This boy will feature in our ad for the toys.

As you know, as a postman earlier, I used to give people their letters.

And this boy will get tons of fan-mail!

After all I'm a star, Mom! Look at the lines on my palm!

They reach out to the very end! - Don't trust the lines so much, Aditya.

They seem to imply one thing, and give you quite another.

Pretty serious, isn't she?

Mother India!

(Indistinct Chattering)

Excuse me...

What a pretty sari. - Thanks.

But it's ordinary compared to yours!

That trademark flower-band in your hair looks very pretty.

It's Ishwar's gift, literally. He personally brings one for me everyday.

Is that all? A measly flowerband? I give my Ashalata a bouquet everyday!

Really? Does your wife go around with a bouquet in her hair everyday?

The two of them are at it again. Shall we...?

Wasn't me, it was Natu who took off.

He says, "That's nothing" at everything anyone says...

So Mr Naidu...? What are you gentlemen discussing?

My son Venkat! He wants to ignore my hotel business and turn a Pop singer.

I spent half a million rupees!

"You're pregnant, I'm a beggar at heart..."

To record that cursed song, he had six sessions!

That's happening in every family. - But that's very good, Mr Naidu.

You ought to be happy with your son, his cassettes are selling quickly.

Two cassettes! Only 2 cassettes!

I bought a cassette which got spoilt.

So I was the one who bought the second cassette, too!

He's forgotten all about his education and learning!

That's really sad, really sad. But we're very lucky in this respect.

Our son Adi wants to become a film actor.

But he's completing his education. He stands first in the college every year.

That's nothing! Ashalata's niece came first in college every day!

Hear that...? Every day! - Every day!

For the 8 'o clock classes, she got to the college at 6!

(Laughing)

That's very nice, Natu-bhai! You know something...?

My son stands first in studies and also first in drama-competitions every year.

He's really a very good actor! - That's nothing

Ashalata's nephew is the greatest actor.

He played a mailbox in one of his school plays.

He gave such a superb performance...

people thrust their letters in his mouth even today!

Your son is nothing! - What was that...?

My daughter is like Einstein in brains and Aishwarya in beauty! One of a kind!

Your son's a big zero. He's dumb! - He's had too much to drink, lady...

take care of him, else... - I'll take care of him.

What's wrong with him, Sumi? He gets started at just any place!

He took off at Agarwal's funeral the other day.

"What...? Just a thousand people?"

"There were 5000 people at my uncle's funeral."

He must've been joking. - What joking!

He took off on the lenses of someone's glasses the other day.

I said, the peon in my office can't see without his glasses.

And Natu the great says...

the peon in my office goes deaf without his glasses!

I asked, "Why? Does he use his glasses for hearing?"

He says, "No, he uses a hearing-aid. He needs glasses to find the hearing aid."

What are you laughing for? - But he's got a point.

He's got a point all the time, Sumi! My grandpa's great! My Uncle's great!

And my Ashalata... Absolutely original!

Sure. As if our wives are all duplicates!

Let him be. - There we were, talking about Adi and...

Your Adi...

he's nothing! He's a zero!

He's good for nothing, take it from me. I know that wastrel!

Will you listen to me... Please step aside.

You tossed me into the swimming pool...?

But this is nothing!

My brother-in-law threw me in the sea!

(Laughing)

Don't laugh, Sumi. - "No offense towards my dad," I heard.

But no offense against my son? I hadn't heard that.

He said it twice! Aditya is nothing! Whereas my Aditya is...

What is he?

What is your Aditya?

Natu-bhai said nothing wrong, Ishu. Aditya's really nothing.

And he'll become nothing either. You know why?

Because you want to pamper your darling son.

So mustn't I love my son? - Hey! As if I don't love Aditya.

But that doesn't mean we succumb to each of his whims and fancies.

1.5 million rupees in a single day on a chartered flight, Ishu...?!

Why shouldn't I fulfill all his wishes, Sumi? Why shouldn't I do it?

What did we have when we came to this city?

We had no roof over our heads, we didn't have enough to eat.

We were terrified when we thought of fulfilling a desire of ours.

In fact, we even thought our dreams were expensive!

But today, if this postman who went around delivering people's letters...

has become a rich businessman...

it's because of his son and offspring, Aditya.

I've built all this only for Aditya.

Will you continue doing it all his life?

Ishu, you know what problems we're going through.

So what am I expected to do? - Tell Adi the truth, Ishwar.

No.

Before someone else tells him... - No, Sumi.

Nobody, except you and me, knows about it. And if...

But you have to tell him someday, don't you?

He won't be able to bear the shock. - He will have to.

Maybe it'll make him change, he'll become more responsible?

Sumi...

I don't like that look! - I have a way!

"We're emperors of our world..."

"Our world's full of fun."

"We're emperors of our world..."

"Our world's full of fun."

"We've seen off our woes..."

"We hardly find time from our happiness."

"We're emperors of our world..."

"Our world's full of fun."

"Every prank of yours, I've been part of."

"From you I learnt to make the most of a fun-filled life."

"I'm going crazy."

"Father and son, we always were. But we're friends too."

"Ever since you have arrived, I have rediscovered..."

"My younger days in you."

"We're emperors of our world..."

"Our world's full of fun."

"From you I got my life..."

"From you, I got this world."

"This world would've meant nothing had you not been part of it."

"Every hardship is behind us."

"Our destinies are one now."

"We have no grudge, nor complaints..."

"We have everything we ever wanted."

"We're emperors of our world..."

"Our world's full of fun."

"We've seen off our woes..."

"We barely find time from our joys."

Good shot, dad.

Adi, I've decided to get you married to Richa, my friend Pratap's daughter.

We're meeting at the club at 5 tomorrow. Be there.

Dad... - Don't refuse, Adi.

She's a very nice girl. You will have to agree.

You'll be there, won't you? - How can I refuse you, dad?

(Laughing)

What's this, Adi...? You're not even reacting.

My Papa's had a heated swimming pool built for me right in my bedroom.

I can now swim even in winter. With you.

You know I love you, right? Love you, love you, love you!

I love you too, Pooja. - Why are you sounding so sad...?

Guess what, darling? There's no one at home tonight.

You've been really pampered, haven't you? - Sure. I'm my father's only daughter.

So how will you leave this house and move into mine?

Well....? Why can't I?

You have a heated swimming-pool. And I have just an ordinary pool.

As if I was born in a heated swimming pool!

I'll manage with a simple swimming pool.

You have 12 bedrooms in your bungalow. And I have just 7

The poor manage with just 2 bedrooms, don't they?

In any case, I'll live wherever you are. Right?

For your sake, I'd live even in a 4-bedroom place.

When the chauffeur's not around, you'll have to drive on your own.

Teach me. I'll drive on my own. Even an Indian car. Okay?

What if we don't have a cook? - We'll get food from the restaurants!

Because I love you, baby.

Now tell me what you wanted to. - Pooja...

Daddy's fixing my wedding with his friend Pratap's daughter this evening.

And I just couldn't turn my father down, Pooja.

Aditya never refuses me. Right...?

Right. Unless he hears what you're saying.

Must you joke even now...? You tell me, Richa.

You've met Adi already. What do you think of him?

I don't know. I mean, I found Adi very funny.

I found him to be very jovial. - Exactly! He's very jovial.

He's a born comedian. - Born comedian...?

That's nothing. I was an unborn comedian.

The moment I was born... - The comic bandwagon took off...?

People were rolling with laughter! "Look what's born!"

Get rid of him.

Please! Please leave! This is a very personal meeting.

I know, your son with Pratap's daughter.

Like a crow flying away with a precious pearl.

He's calling Richa a crow, Sumi! - Actually, he's calling Aditya a crow.

Correct! This girl's so educated and your son's a drop-out from school!

I'm going to thrash him, Sumi! - Please... take him away from here.

Pratap, I suggest you come with me! He's not turning up.

Will you keep quiet? My Adi is a stickler for punctuality! Okay?

Oh yes, a great stickler! He's always just five hours late!

The drop-out monkey!

My Adi's done his MBA. With a first class!

That's nothing! My father was a TC (ticket collector) on the Rajdhani!

I'm not talking about trains! I'm talking about his degree!

He has two degrees!

And my uncle was running up a fever of 105 degrees!

(Laughing)

C'mon... come!

What's this guy...? Let's go before he returns.

Natu will come back, but where's Aditya...?

We were supposed to meet at 8 and it's already 9!

I'll phone him.

Go on, Adi. (Crying) Get married to Richa.

She's very nice. She can even brew tea!

(Crying)

You will be happy with her. - But I love you, Pooja.

So why didn't you tell your father? - My father...

You know what could happen if I told my father.

Yes, I do. Which is why I'm asking you to go away.

(Phone Ringing)

Even the phone's ringing now!

Adi...? Papa here.

Yes, yes...

What...? Oh, I see, I see...

He's helping some poor man out and got held up.

Actually, we're here at the club...

(Phone Ringing)

Thakur... - You can take your own time...

Your phone, Thakur... your phone's ringing.

Well... a wrong number. The instrument isn't working.

They're all bloody crooks. - Really?

Relax, Thakur. He must be caught up with a problem.

I'm sorry, Pratap.

The humiliation I had to face because of him...

Yes, he even switched off his phone. - What...?

His phone...? - Yes! He switched it off.

There's a limit to irresponsibility. - I tell you!

There's a limit to carelessness! - Let him come. I'll take him to task...

Yes. Let him come.

I'll take him to task in a way... - Will you take him to task or ask?

"Where've you been, Adi? What happened, my son?"

I will take him to task, Sumi! Let him at least come home!

If I don't break his legs, I won't call myself Ishwar again!

Dad... - Adi...?

My son! What happened, son? Where were you?

Why the long face...? Tell Daddy what's up, c'mon.

Laxman, will you a fetch a book of names?

We got to change the master's name. - But I was about to scold him, Sumi...

This book...?

What have you brought the book for? Go away!

Go where? - Go and get to work!

Can't you see how upset he is? Adi... no, my son! Why're you crying?

Laxman! Fetch some water. - To drink...?

No, to bathe! Get a bucket full of water!

No, Adi.. don't cry. (Crying)

Why must you cry...? Sit down... take it easy.

No, not the cushion to wipe tears. - Use daddy's shirt.

You mustn't be carrying a handkerchief? - Can't you see how upset he is, Sumi?

Oh yes. Well, what's up son? What's biting you?

Daddy, Mummy...

this girl, a friend of mine, ran away to get married.

And I helped her do it. - Is that all...?

Was that what you were crying for? You're really funny, Adi!

But daddy, the boy. she married...

The boy...

is me.

(Laughing)

Kidding...? Kidding!

Sumi, this son of yours... you're kidding, aren't you?

No. - Marriage...?

Calm down... Relax! Let me talk to him!

You're not kidding, right? - No.

You know what you're saying? Marriage!?

Who on earth have you married? - A girl.

Good thing. Else daddy would've had a heart attack.

What's her name? - I fondly call her Mithi.

Fondly whatever! What's her name? - Pooja.

Where does she live? - In my car.

In your car...? Since when? - I mean, she's in the car right now.

Go and bring her inside! Go on!

As you say, daddy. - As you say, daddy!

Calm down... - How can I calm down? Marriage...

He gets married without even telling us and...

Sir, the water.

Take it away! Have a bath on my behalf! Go on!

In the kitchen or the bathroom? - He bathes in the kitchen?

Wherever he bathes, Ishu... will you please calm down?

Whether we like it or not, we'll have to welcome our daughter-in-law, isn't it?

Has the young master got married? - Gawd! What a nuisance!

That boy decided to get married and didn't even bother to ask us!

And this chap keeps asking all sorts of questions!

Go. Go away for now.

Me...? - Yes.

Go inside now.

Bless you.

May you live long.

Dad... - Okay, okay.

Do her folks know? Or are they also...?

Mithi's an amazing girl. She told her folks that...

she'd be staying at Rimi's house. And Rimi, her friend...

will break the news to her father that we've got a bit married.

How much is a bit...? A spoonful of marriage?

Ishu.. - What Ishu!

Her father can file a police case against us, Adi!

That he will. - You mean, that's for sure...?

Yes. - Is your father an oddball...?

No, he's not an oddball. It's just that he's a bit eccentric.

I see... what's his business?

He runs a factory of knives and daggers. - Hear that?

An eccentric man who makes knives and daggers!

That's why we didn't tell him. - But I manufacture harmless toys!

Why wasn't I told?

One moment... one moment!

My dear, is your father eccentric? - Yes.

He makes knives and daggers...?

Can you raise the veil, please?

You're Natu's daughter, aren't you?

(Music Playing)

(Laughing)

Sumi! Call him over!

Make a phone call to Natu-bhai and just call him over!

Well, Natu-bhai? Why're you hiding your face like a nervous bride?

Your daughter has married my son. They ran away together!

Natu-bhai... say something, please. - What can he say?

My son's a crow that flew away with a pearl...? Huh?

Adi's a monkey who dropped out?

That's nothing, Sumi! Natu-bhai is now this monkey's father-in-law!

(Laughing)

Your daughter Pooja ran away to marry my son Adi!

Ishu... please! - Right!

Natu-bhai, we're now relatives. Please say peace

Could you folks embrace...?

Well, if not embrace, you can atleast sweeten your tongues...?

What will you have Natu-bhai? Coffee? Juice...? Cold-coffee?

Bathroom. - You'll have to go there on your own!

We can't bring it down here. Laxman...

Oh yes, you haven't met Laxman, have you?

Laxman... come here.

Meet Natu-bhai. Pooja's father.

Hello. - Hello.

Did your daughter run away to get married?

Yes.

Why did she run away? - She was the running champ at college!

Which college? - JC College.

Like whom...? - JC! J.C. College!

I mean, like which college?

Jaswant Chavan College! That's why she ran away to get married!

Didn't she call you to the wedding?

No.

Why didn't she invite you? - She was running, you see...

and I have a knee-pains.

Did the marriage take place then? - Obviously, it did...

everybody was running. The bride, the bridegroom...

the priest ran with the holy fire, they even took the vows on the run!

And that guy who's laughing... Pooja's husband... her lord and master!

So who's her husband then?

Who's this guy...? A politician or a terrorist...?

Didn't you want to go to the bathroom...?

Hey Laxman, show him to the bathroom.

What are you going to the bathroom for?

It's for me to decide what I'm going to do in the bathroom!

No... I've already done the laundry.

Go on! Enjoy yourself, Natu-bhai! I have a wonderful bathroom!

This is nothing! We have a 12-bedroom hall and kitchen bungalow.

And the bathroom...? Do you go to the neighbours for that?

What do you mean by that, Ishwar?

Ashalata, Pooja... come on! I've taken enough! Let's go!

Go where...? And how...? Pooja's now my daughter-in-law, Natu-bhai!

Your daughter ran away to marry my son Aditya!

Stop raving about "running away"!

This is nothing! My niece ran away after the marriage. Twice at that!

Please, Ishwar... he's a relative of ours now. Please?

Okay, okay, Natu-bhai, I'm really very sorry.

With folded hands... I say sorry to you.

That's nothing! I fold my hands, bow my head and apologise to you!

I touch your feet and ask for your forgiveness, Natu-bhai!

I prostrate at your feet and apologise to you!

Your apology means nothing!

Yes! Me accepts, Natu-bhai!

(Laughing)

Hello, son. Where are you? - We're in Greece right now, dad.

By mistake the travel agent... - It's two months, son.

Just another week, dad! We'll be back in a week.

This is such a lovely place... - I don't like it without you, my son.

If possible, could you...?

Okay, dad. We'll leave for Mumbai tomorrow.

I love you, dad. And this is not much of a place either.

I love you, son. - You take care. Okay, dad?

I hope you won't mind? - I just want to be with you.

Whether it's in Greece or Ghatkopar!

(Laughing)

You were right, Sumi.

It's time I told him the truth.

We don't have a choice, do we?

But... how are we going to tell him?

Just as you told me about it.

Ishu...?

I went home, Adi told me that you were here. so...

What did they have to say?

Sumi... - I don't want to hear it.

Sumi, the reports... - No! I don't believe it!

You mustn't believe it either!

There must be a mistake... they could have made a mistake, isn't it?

Lung cancer.

The last stage.

(Crying)

I'll have a word with them. These doctors have a way of...

talking any nonsense... - Sumi!

Lung cancer.

Let's consult other doctors.

There's a very big cancer hospital in Germany...

All the reports were sent to them. You're the one who sent them, Sumi.

The doctors have just one thing to say: 9 months.

Or a year, if there's a miracle.

(Crying)

This is no less, Ishu. You promised me...

that we'd celebrate the 50th, the 60th and the 70th wedding anniversary together.

You will celebrate it, Sumi.

After I'm gone...

you won't forget to wear a flower-band in your hair, will you?

You will keep me alive even after I'm dead, won't you Sumi?

How will I even live, Ishu...?

He'll be shattered, Sumi.

The two of us will take care of him.

We've been together through happy times...

we'll live together through sorrow, too.

Which flight are they arriving by? - 714, via Delhi.

It's 3 hours late. - This is nothing.

My uncle was returning after his marriage...

The flight arrived so late, he had two children on the way.

Not again, Natu-bhai... Hey Laxman, Natu-bhai wants you over.

Are we here to receive Aditya and Pooja?

Yes.

Are they arriving on a plane? - We're at the airport, aren't we?

So they'll be arriving on a plane.

But we came here in a car. - That's because we are locals, you see?

It's different with those who come in from outside.

But I arrived in a train.

At the airport? - The railway station.

Trains don't arrive at airports. Only planes land here.

Is this an airport?

No, it's a rickshaw-stand. They're arriving in a rickshaw!

Rickshaw-stand...? So where will they keep their luggage?

On my head. Where else?

So why're you standing here? Rather sit in a rickshaw.

Not one head... I have ten heads!

Are you a ten-headed demon? - Yes, I'm a demon!

And you're more devilish than I am! Will someone deliver me from this moron?

There's Adi, Ishu

(Laughing)

We'll have to tell him everything today. Okay?

Pooja... daddy! - Hi!

Hey dad!

Hey Aadi!

Dad, dad... I've heard of a quick engagement and marriage.

In our case, there's no engagement, it's straightaway a marriage and a kid!

You've become a grandfather!

Dad's become a grandfather!

What about the grandpa's hug...? C'mon!

Aren't you happy? - Happy? I...

Sure...? - I'm going mad with joy!

Natu-bhai! Sister-in-law! I'm going to become a grandfather!

Sumi... a grandfather! I... a grandfather!

I've got full value for the toy-factory I built.

We'll soon have someone to play with the toys!

Adi, Pooja... I love you!

Laxman! Fetch some sweets!

Won't you ask who'll you feed the sweets to and why? Question him!

Well, I know that the master's going to become a grandfather.

Adi's going to become a father! - Really? I didn't know that.

Are you going to become a father? - Yes, Laxman.

We're also going to become grandparents and Pooja will become a mother.

You mean, six babies in all?

Dad, if it's a baby-boy, let's have everything in blue for him.

Blue clothes, blue shoes, blue pot, blue tub, blue swing...

And suppose it's a baby-girl, let's have everything pink for her.

Wow! We never had such fancy ideas in our time.

You mean all this will be wasted if it's a baby-boy.

And all that will be wasted if it's a baby-girl?

What waste? We aren't misers like you to have just one kid, Ma!

We're going to have two children.

We're going to have two children. What say?

At least learn to take responsibility for one child first, Adi.

So who's done all the shopping and brought all that stuff? I have!

I'm the one who put things together. My wife keeps sleeping all day.

Tell her, Pooja. - It's the truth, Mom...

Adi has changed for the better. He has become very responsible.

Tell her about the jeans. - We saw a pair of jeans worth 50,000.

He didn't even try it on! - The money you spent on these things...

belonged to your daddy, Adi. You only squandered the money.

Stop it now, Sumi! Isn't my money Adi's money too?

No. - What do you want, Mama?

Create an identity of your own, Aditya. Or else...

Please tell him, Ishwar.

Aditya, I... - Two months! In just two months...

You will prove that you can become a very successful film-star.

Please, Ishwar! - I give you two months.

What? - Please, Sumi!

For the first time, he's trying to come to terms with his responsibilities.

In two months, you are going to earn 100,000 from your acting, Aditya.

I don't care how you will do it, that's your problem.

I can put that in writing. - Put it in writing then.

Dictate the letter, dad. - In two months, by Holi...

You will earn 100,000 rupees, or you will join Archies thereafter.

Sign it, go on.

Signed, sealed and delivered.

Gentleman's word? - In writing, dad. In writing!

I could have told him then.

And maybe Adi would have started coming to the factory from tomorrow.

But people would've asked him later, "What happened of your acting career?"

And he'd have had to say, "I could've become a very successful star..."

"but I had to give it all up because my father died suddenly."

No, Sumi...

I will not let my impending death become an excuse for Adi's failure.

In fact, whatever little time I have...

I will try to make it the key to his success.

The poor boy has asked for only two months.

They'll go by even before we realise it.

You will stand by me, won't you?

Yes. Time will stand by us too.

Apart from Adi's success, you have also to see your grandson.

Will I be able to see him, Sumi? - Of course you will, Ishu.

God ought to realise, Sumi.

I'm a man who has sold toys to children all over the world...

and now I'm going away without even playing with my own grandchild.

I see a bridge between the earth and the heavens, Sumi.

I see myself at one end of the bridge. At the other end is my grandson.

He's arriving. And I'm leaving.

Our journey has already begun, Sumi. But...

Whose journey will be completed first...?

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"In the colours is the language of love."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"In the colours is the language of love."

"Why do you keep following me?"

"Why do you set my heart pounding?"

"Go away, don't touch me."

"Goodness! Here's Holi..."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"Goodness! Here's Holi."

"In the colours is love conveyed."

"Goodness! Here's Holi..."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"Red, blue and yellow..."

"and your blushing cheeks."

"O dark-eyed beauty, you have an enticing gait."

"Holi's just an excuse to snuggle up to me."

"My moon-like face you want to smear with colours."

"Holi will come and go, but you have deceit at heart."

"I'm not so naive not to notice."

"Goodness! Here's Holi."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"Goodness! Here's Holi."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"Goodness! Here's Holi..."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"Ever since I have found you, Holi's altogether different."

"Your anklets chime to the rhythm of my heart-beat."

"You will use those sweet words to steal my heart..."

"I know, you always do what you want to."

"I concede defeat to you. For I crave your love."

"This Holi, I sway with you... Goodness! Here's Holi."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"Goodness! Holi!"

"The colours are all about love."

"Goodness! Here's Holi..."

"Do me a favour! Let's play Holi."

"For these colours are all about love."

"Do me a favour, let's play Holi."

"For these colours are all about love."

Happy Holi to you.

My last Holi.

Holi!

Dad... Pooja!

Move your leg. - Sorry.

Don't argue, Just drink it up.

(Coughing)

I thought you were sensible, Pooja. Even if you're Natu's daughter...

I still thought you had some sense!

But what has my father to do...? - To hell with Natu!

Never mind. Not hell. To the oil fields with him!

At the moment, he's away in Australia on a vacation.

Wherever! There's something called good sense, isn't there?

And you... what happened of your promise?

You were going to earn 100,000 in 2 months. So where's the money?

I knew you'd ask me this question. So I've come prepared. Look at this.

The Zoom TV guys have started the Zoom In and Zoom Out talent contest.

The winners will get the lucky break.

The first three will be signed by top producers in leading roles.

It's a matter of only 5 months.

The contest's going to take 5 months. I can't wait so long.

Dad, dad... it's a matter just five months.

They'll go by in a jiffy. - Adi, my son...

Put yourself in my shoes and think of my situation sometimes!

Have you ever tried to put yourself in my shoes to consider my situation, dad?

Adi... - Please! Please!

Go ahead. - What?

Do as he says.

Let him step into your shoes for once and see...

how difficult it is to be a father.

I don't quite understand, Sumi... - I know what Mom's getting at!

For a little while, Mom wants me to put forth my argument as Ishwarchand...

and you will play Aditya. Right, Mom?

So I'm your son, you're the father? - Perfect!

But you will accept whatever decision is taken now, Aditya.

Left, right, left, right... always ready for a fight!

What are you waiting for...? Go on. Get started.

Adi... Adi... - She's calling you.

I'm calling you, dad. You're Adi right now, remember?

All the best! You're going to win. Because you are the best, right?

Is she talking to me, or you? - Forget who she is talking to!

You promised me two months ago that you'd earn 100,000 rupees from acting...

and give it to me. Where is the money? - Dad...

Actually my ideas about an acting career were a bit crazy.

So I have decided that beginning tomorrow, I will...

You will straightaway plunge into the Zoom In Zoom Out contest! Right?

No, dad, no... - Now don't con your father!

Sumi, look at the twinkle in your son's eyes!

He dreams of becoming a star. Go on, son. Become a film-star!

Are you happy now...? - That wasn't what I was getting at, dad!

You haven't heard me out, dad... - Silence! No arguments!

Maybe I'm a bit stubborn and sentimental.

But I'm not stone-hearted, my son.

Sumi, there are times when I'm very angry with myself.

What have I given my son...? - So much!

What's so much? A BMW, money and a house. That's it?

That's it...? - What else!

A good father will give his son freedom.

Go on, son... - Where?

Go and fulfill your dreams, my son. You have my blessings. Go!

But didn't I promise to earn 100,000 and give it to you, dad?

Or I'd join Archies, remember? It was in writing... Here it is.

There you are. Happy now? Now tell me something, my son.

How many years do you need to make your dream come true?

3 years? 5? 10 years...? - What...?

Sumi, Pooja dear, I, Ishwarchand Thakur...

Give my son 10 years of freedom to make his dreams come true.

And that is my final verdict. Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen!

There you are! He's stolen the thunder from you!

Say something, my son! - What will I say?

This dad won't let me take a breath, where will I speak from?

Dad, daddy... - No, no need to say thank you.

If you must say thank you, say it to God...

who made my eyes open to reason! I'm an elephant...

Who chews with teeth he does not show.

My son, I still remember.

I left my father's house and came to Bombay with just 35 rupees.

To live life on my own terms!

How can I stop my son from doing the same thing today?

Just as I made my future bright with my hard work and sincerity...

you must also create an identity and carve a niche of your own!

Go on, my son. Go ahead!

All right.

Those last words of yours were like divine intervention, daddy!

They contained so much of truth!

What are you trying to say, son? - All I'm saying, dad...

just as you left your father's house with just 35 rupees...

I, Aditya Ishwarchand Thakur will leave this house and go away.

Now look, son... look... - No! No... please, dad!

Please don't stop me now. Because I will not stay here!

I'm useless and spoilt, but I have a lot of self-respect!

Mom! There are times I'm so angry with myself!

What have I ever done to make my daddy feel proud of me?

So much... - I haven't done! But I will. Now!

Mithi, Ma, and Laxman... wherever you are!

From today... this moment, I'm leaving this house.

From today, my air-conditioned room will be Laxman's...

and that dilapidated outhouse will be mine!

And until I achieve something in life, I'm not coming back to this house.

So give me your blessings, dad! - Give him your blessings, Ishu.

You're his father, aren't you? Bless him for a long life.

May you live long.

(Laughing)

Nice... good game! We must play it more often!

All right, dad. We're tired. Pooja and I are going to bed.

Good night, dad. Nice game...

Stay.

So I'm an elephant who chews with teeth you can't see?

I'll now show you how I bite. Get out.

Sorry, Pooja. You can stay here if you wish to. But he'll have to leave.

I'll go with Adi. It'll be a test not just for him, but for me too.

All right. Move it, Adi... Go on.

Treat every word I just said as irrevocable.

Until you achieve something in life, you will not step in this house.

Now get out and stay out. Out!

Go away!

Do me a favour, let's play holi...

The door in the bathroom won't shut! - That's very good news, baby...

Shut up! I'm going to give you a whack!

Are you taking all this seriously? - What else!

It's all a joke. Daddy will arrive in a little while and say, "Let's go home."

But I'm stubborn, I'm not budging.

I'll say, "No, pay a penalty first. Send us on another honeymoon."

What do you think? - You've gone mad! You know that?

You're the one who'll go mad. Have you heard of Morocco?

Morocco! Not Monaco.

Just imagine... you and I. In Morocco.

Aditya... wake up and smell the coffee. Okay?

(Phone Ringing)

I'm down by the boat, man!

Hello! - Who?

Question-paper...? This is Natu here.

From that side of the phone?

Stop it now. Give it to your boss

What...? The phone?

No, cut your hands and give them to him.

The left? Or the right? - Both of them, you demon!

If I cut both my hands, how'll I hold the phone...?

Place the phone on your head. Cut your hands and give them to him.

If I cut my left hand with my right hand...

what'll I cut my right hand with? - Forget it! Never mind!

Let's begin at the beginning!

Give the phone to your boss. That's it!

But your phone is in your hands. How can I give it to him?

Give the phone you've got! Why're you battering my brains...?

Ricky's conned me too! Such a big surfing board...

Whose phone is it?

Give it to me. - To you?

Hello - Send this guy to the war!

He's more dangerous than dynamite!

What did you say to him?

On the phone? - Go on.

Hello. - Where must I go?

The Andamans and Nicobar Islands.

Hello! Sister-in-law! Are you there?

Natu-bhai, we have a bit of a problem here.

I know, I was talking to it moments ago.

No, it's not about Laxman... when are you returning?

If the embassy could help it, they'd send me packing tomorrow.

But it might take another month. But what is the problem?

We've driven Aditya out of the house. With Pooja.

(Humming)

Hey Laxman... why has the fan stopped? - Has it stopped?

Why has the fan stopped? - That's what I'm asking...

Why has the fan stopped? - Whom are you asking?

I'm asking you, Laxman! You! - I see.. it's me. But what?

Why has the fan stopped working?

Because the lights are off. - Do we have light here?

Often. But this time there's no power failure.

I've switched it off.

Hi, dad... c'mon! "We're emperors..."

Didn't I tell you dad would come? - Laxman...

Have you brought the broom? - This one...?

Yes, Laxman. Give that broom to me. Now, this moment... in these hands.

And go on now. - Where to?

Take this fuse. And hide it someplace no one can find it.

Go on. - May I hide it behind the fridge?

Give that to me. Take your stuff, switch on the AC in Adi's room...

and go to sleep. Hurry! - Now...?

You aren't doing this to irritate me, are you?

You're the one who's doing things to irritate us dad, not him.

Now please call us home. We're fed up here.

The rent of this room is 1500 rupees.

If you want electricity, you'll have to pay an advance of 5000 rupees. Cash.

You opened an account for me which you've already closed.

And you gave me a credit-card which can't be used anymore.

Here you are then. Clean the house, wash the cars, work in the garden...

And you can live here in return. Fair enough...? Here you are.

What if I refuse to do it?

This happens to be my property. You'll have to vacate it, my son.

Whom are you trying to scare? I have a lot of friends.

We'll go and live somewhere. Right? - No.

You've done all you could, Aditya. I know you very well.

This is where you'll have to stay. You don't have a choice.

So the rent of this room is 1500 and the advance is Rs.5000.

Until you pay me that sum, you won't even be able to breathe freely...

let alone having any food. Okay, my son...?

See you... soon.

I'm not coming!

I'm not going to ruin my life, trying to sell your toys!

You saw how he talked to me?

Is this how a father treats his son, Mithi?

Exactly! That's what our son will ask. How can a father treat his son like this?

You've started neglecting him even before he's born, Adi.

What neglect, darling...? - What else is this!

I haven't even had a cup of tea and you're rubbing cream into your face.

But I have to. The contest begins soon.

Apart from my talent, I also have to take care of my looks.

There are 5 months to go for your contest. What'll I do till then?

You want me to act for a meal?

Pooja hasn't had anything to eat. - She's the one I'm taking this for.

Made in clarified-butter. I'll ask her to eat it up quietly.

And Adi...?

I mean, he must've come to his senses by now.

(Crying)

I'm sorry, baby. I ought to have considered your state.

After you, you are my responsibility.

I have a suggestion. Go away to your Papa's house for a few days, okay.

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

If you can't handle responsibilities, why did you marry me, Adi?

Because I love you, darling! - No, you don't! You only love yourself!

Or you wouldn't have been so shameless to ask me to go to my father's house.

What else can I do...? I'm worried about you.

Get to work. Understand your responsibilities... live up to them!

Now who's going to make a lead man out of me in one single day?

Or do you want me to sweep the garden...? Me? Sweep the garden?

Where are you going now...? To Papa's house...? Hey!

Taking a walk, are you...? What are you upto?

You think you are a prince.

And despite being a princess, I'll have to work for a living.

My baby's starving.

Listen to me... Listen! Please!

Don't cry. I feel awful when you cry, please.

And give that broom to me. It doesn't look good in your hands.

Look at me... you do trust me, don't you?

I don't right now. - Well, all right. You will soon.

In a little while, I'll get fruits, pizzas and... everything for you!

I'll bring for you everything in the world, okay?

So go inside and rest.

If not for us, do it at least for the baby that's going to arrive.

Please, please, please...

Ma... what's for breakfast? - Nothing for you.

I stay out for a day and you get back to making rotten things!

I'm so hungry, I'm going to faint. Rustle up a meal for me, please!

Aditya, you've got an opportunity to prove...

that you can look after your wife and child.

Don't lose this opportunity. - You too have the opportunity...

to feed your pregnant daughter-in-law. What are you doing about it?

You keep scolding me for nothing! Please, Ma... I'm terribly hungry.

All right, you don't make it. I'll ask Question-Mark to do it.

Laxman...

Hurry up and pack it in.

You sit here

Aditya's in the kitchen. Stuffing the lunch-box.

Adi, keep that lunch-box back.

Sumi, this boy is not stepping in this house again.

Keep it back. - Not for me. For your daughter-in-law.

She's hungry. It's necessary for her to eat, isn't it?

So have the food brought from her father's house! Is this a hotel?

Why're you talking like this, Dad? Mithi's pregnant, isn't she?

Did you ask us before you planned the baby?

10 babies are born every minute in this country.

Must I turn my house into an orphanage...

so every hungry beggar can barge into it whenever he's hungry?

My child is not an orphan, dad.

With a father like you, what else will your child be?

The child will himself ask you some day...

"Why did you give birth to me, if you couldn't look after me?"

Even an animal takes the trouble to hunt for her cubs, you shameless man!

You're worse than an animal! The beggar!

Go on now! Get lost!

If you're so fond of begging, stand with your wife on the streets.

A lot of people will take pity on you and give you money.

And when the baby's born, take it along too. You'll get a lot of money!

(Crying)

C'mon get out!

Out!

(Door Close)

It's all happening because of you, Sumi. Only because of you!

I'm his mother, Ishu... do you think I didn't feel bad?

Was that any way for me to talk to my son?

I've broken my son's heart.

After I'm dead, you must tell him that all this was because...

My darling son! How hurt he must've been.

But I liked it very much.

We're teaching him to walk on his own, Ishu.

Let him fall and steady himself. He'll learn to walk on his own.

Whatever you're doing is right. You mustn't regret it.

Go away, Pooja. Go back to the room.

No, Aditya. Let me stand here.

I want our baby to see what a responsible man his father is.

He can even pick up the broom... - I'm a terrible man.

(Crying)

Why else would Papa say such nasty things to me?

What a scolding he gave me! - You're a very responsible father.

But you are a terrible servant.

That's not the way to sweep the floor, Adi. Let me do it.

No, I'll learn it. I can't sweep the garden too.

Didn't I ask you to go away? Go on... go away from here.

Where are you going, Adi? - Our baby's starving, Pooja.

We need to do something. I'll be back soon.

I'll do it right away, sir.

Sharma, this is Chowdhary.

Listen to me. He's irresponsible.

Keeping me on tenterhooks till the last moment. Why?

No, you listen to me! I'll complain to the stuntmen's union, you dig?

Sir, if you need an assistant...

I need poison right now. Will you fetch some?

If the shoot is cancelled, the producer and the director will kill me.

Give me one chance, sir. I badly need money.

I'm talking on the phone, let me talk.

Now listen to me, Sharma. I understand it's a difficult stunt.

But I can't help it. Who will reason with the producer and the director?

Can you?

Right, that's why I ask you to talk to some stuntman and send him over.

All right, charge double the amount. You don't want me killed, do you?

I'll do it, sir... - Shut up, will you?

I know it's risky, but there's risk involved in every business

Flood, earthquake, extortion threats.. anything can happen.

So you won't send a stuntman? To hell with all of you!

I won't let you down, sir. Please give me one opportunity.

The best stuntmen in the industry have refused me.

You think you are the cat's whiskers? - I don't care for my life.

I'm not scared. I'll sign any document you want me to.

One chance, please.

It's only to please you, Ma.

Aditya's pride must not take a beating.. I got to take care of that too.

My dear, your baby...

Nothing will happen. There will be no problems, I promise.

If Adi doesn't bring food tonight, I'll myself come to you...

and you'll feed me.

My dear...

God willing, you won't have to come here.

It's very risky. - It's okay.

But I'll accept only cash. - See those dogs?

They've been starving for two days. - My baby is starving too.

A big chunk of flesh will be tied to your arm.

Once the shoot is on, nobody can help you, get that?

Those wild dogs will pounce on you.

I'll get the money after the shot, will I ?

Tell the director that we've found a stuntman. Give him the dress.

(Dogs Barking)

(Dogs Barking)

(Dogs Barking)

(Dogs Barking)

Cut!

What are you watching? Save him. Go.

Moron! Couldn't you have asked for help?

Are you blind? Get first aid.

Had these dogs torn you apart, I'd have been jailed.

Don't ever show me your face! And never do stunts again, okay.

Hang on.

Are you alright, young man. - I'm absolutely fine.

Just tell him to give my money. - Give him his money, right now.

Thank you. - Young man, what's your name?

Name? I'm trying to make a name, sir.

The day I make it, you will come to know.

Thank you.

Here...

Have food, while I go and see him.

They've taken daddy to the hospital, Adi.

Ishwar Chandra Thakur? - Room no 510.

What madness is this? Adi will find out.

Doctor, listen... please try to understand.

My son has set out to become a hero. I don't know when he'll make it.

We are here. We'll take care of Pooja.

This ward is fine, she will stay here.

He's right, doctor.

My baby will be born in this very room.

Whether I become a hero or not, I'll pay up, even if I have to beg.

And doctor, book the room in my name.

Ma... the rent for the house.

Ask him to put the fuse back...

so that there's light in my house again.

(Music Playing)

"No complaints, no protests..."

"no sharing either"

"Come, let's embrace..."

"and shed a tear."

"The flames of constraints burn me."

"No one knows my pain."

"My heart's rent."

"Breath betrays me."

"Time looks down on me."

"Breath betrays me."

"My heart's rent."

My will.

I've bequeathed everything to Adi.

Life insurance policy.

The first step towards securing our child's future.

Our child is now secured.

"I love you."

"Everything that's mine belongs to you."

"You have..."

"no idea..."

"you are my heartbeat..."

"you mean the very life to me."

"You make..."

"my story."

"Believe it or not."

"It's a terrible point in life."

"I haven't lost you, neither do I have you."

"Though I wish..."

"we can't unite."

"My heart's rent."

(Explosion)

(Crying)

I got to go to the dance class, then the gym.

We got to rehearse the lines in the evening.

I've boiled the milk, the sandwich is ready too.

I've heated the water too. What else do you want, princess?

I just want to see you. - My baby wants to see me!

See me on the 70mm screen.

After I win the contest, we'll have a real ball...

in our new house. You'll say, "Ishwar..."

"get me water. Ishwar, get me juice."

"Ishwar, get the car."

"Ishwar..." - Ishwar?

Yes. I'll have a servant by that name.

I'll put out an advertisement. Servant, gardener, chef, chauffeur..."

"apply if your name is Ishwar, else don't..."

Madcap.

Our new life will drive you crazy.

Just watch...

I'll give you your every wish, I promise.

Look... I made this doll, for my grandson.

His name is Jerry, the giraffe.

I'll be the first one who plays with my grandson.

I'll show him. He told me to use my baby to beg, didn't he?

No problem.

Every one will play with my baby, but I won't let him even see his face.

No way, Pooja.

Will I get to see my grandson?

I won't let you leave!

I'll go to heaven and plead with God. I'll take Laxman and Natu along too.

God! Just imagine. Laxman will say...

"Who is this celestial beauty? Rambha?"

"Who is Menaka? A dancer?"

Natu-bhai will say...

"Menaka's dance is just nothing. My wife dances like Britney Spears."

Jokes

Keep joking like this, Sumi...

till the end.

Do I have a choice?

(Phone Ringing)

Lord, don't let him pick up the phone. Please.

Hello. - Damn, it's him!

Hello. - Who?

Natu, from Australia.

Give this message to Ishwar Chandra.

Listen properly. We're returning to India the day after.

We're returning to India the day after by flight.

After landing, we'll take a cab home.

Then we'll freshen up, eat and sleep...

wake up next morning, have breakfast and then come to meet you folks. Okay?

You get that? - Who? I ?

Who am I talking to then, pesticide? - How'd I know?

I can't see you on the phone.

My mistake, boss. I hold my ears in contempt.

How can you hold your ears with two hands?

Does one use four hands? - You said you had ten heads.

How well you remember that, you devil!

Will you give my message or not? - What do you say?

Should I ? Or should I not? - Please convey.

What's the message? - Hang on, let me recollect.

Sure. - The day after...

you will reach the bathroom, and then home.

Then you'll go to the airport, where you will take a bath...

eat and then you'll sleep in the car.

You'll wake up in the morning and fly to Australia to meet the boss.

Right, tell them, they'll understand. All right?

But I don't understand. - Don't understand what?

Why'd you go to Australia to meet the boss?

The boss is here. - My enemy! Demon!

Louse! Bloody ass! - Should I also inform all of them?

Ishwar Chandra... We're back from Australia.

Where are you, mite?

Looks so quiet. - Laxman must've driven everyone out.

My boss is... - The demon!

What happened? - Nothing. Stay away.

Why are you running? - I'm wearing a track suit.

How long will you run? - Give me his remote control.

Want to watch TV? - Remove his batteries!

You will tire yourself out.

The boss and his wife might be late... - Never mind. Stay away!

You will get tired. - I won't.

Shall I serve food? - Call the police!

Shall I get some juice? - Nothing. Call the police.

He should be tied and locked up. He's gone wild.

Go inside, and get two glasses of chilled water, now.

Go on.

Come, he won't do anything. - He should be tied up.

Welcome Natu-bhai. Greetings.

Hi there... well, in a track suit.

This is nothing. My mother-in-law would wear a swimsuit.

For a jog? - In the swimming pool.

When my father-in-law was alive, she used to wear a crimson swimsuit.

After he died... - She stopped swimming.

She started wearing white swimsuits. Old-fashioned people, you see.

But she didn't stop swimming, health conscious as she was, unlike you.

Why do you drag me in? - Look at your face. Weary.

All for driving your son out. - Nothing of that sort, I'm fine.

How was your Australian trip?

Australia...great! My God fantastic.

India is just nothing. Even little children speak English there.

Shall we go and meet Pooja? - Why not? Let's go.

One minute.

Mangoes for Aditya. Don't tell him that I gave them, or he won't eat.

Tell him you got it.

This is nothing, don't worry. - I didn't tell you anything.

I'll explain to him. Don't you worry?

But Natu-bhai...

I'll handle everything.

I'm telling you. You definitely going to win.

Mummy!

Daddy!

(Laughing)

How are you, Mom? - I'm fine, dear

Mangoes!

Let me show you my kitchen, come on.

Is everything okay, dear?

Dad, please come inside... please sit.

Can you explain how one must sit there?

Well... - Who do you think you are?

How dare you put my daughter up in such a filthy place?

Please come inside...

Yes? - Pack Pooja's bags.

But daddy I...

You eloped, I didn't complain.

This is nothing. Sangeeta ran off twice after marriage!

That's a reason to console myself. But there's a limit to everything.

Aditya, at least think of the baby.

That's the reason I toil day and night, dad.

After the contest... - After you win, right?

The father and son are at loggerheads. Why must my daughter bear the brunt?

Let us live, I beg of you! - What are you saying, papa?

I can understand what a father goes through when his child is in trouble.

Go on, dad.

Either you send Pooja with us...

or compromise with your father and go back home.

I'll take Pooja home. - No need for that!

You have worked so much for this contest. You will surely win.

Please go away. - Don't be stubborn, Pooja.

Not I, you are being stubborn.

I have no problems here.

What Adi is doing for me and the baby, is beyond compare.

Where will the baby be born? In some Municipal hospital?

Are all the normal babies born only in five-star hospitals?

No!

As long as Adi is with me, it won't be hard for my baby.

Trust me, papa.

I'm carrying, but it is Adi who's been the real mother.

What a sacrifices!

You pale before her What a sacrifices!

I had told Ishwar Chandra, Pooja will never desert Aditya.

Still he told me to try and get them separated.

Impossible!

He told you not to tell him!

So, to set me and Pooja apart...

dad sent you here, right?

Bye.

Dad tried to set us apart.

He wants to separates us. (Crying)

How could he do that?

I goofed.

Can't I shoot him? - No.

I don't know how I goofed. I'm a born actor.

Really? - Yes. In school, I acted as a dog.

Even today the principal and teachers treat me like a dog.

Let me commit this one murder, Sumi. Just one.

This is nothing, it'll all be fine. - Fine, my foot!

He must be detesting me now.

Dog, eh!

Mangoes, your favourite.

Eat quickly, you got to go.

Dad sent these.

Mom brought them, please.

Dad sent these for me.

Same colour, same shape...

Same smell.

27 years... every season, dad would treat me to these mangoes.

C'mon, how could I forget it.

I know very well.

(Crying)

Ma!

Come inside, son. - Alms... you sent over.

We're not beggars.

You'd rather not do such favours.

Tell him.

Adi, he sent them over because you like mangoes, son.

Someone trying to break my family apart... I hate it.

As for the favours, tell him that...

I hereby break all ties with him.

Besides, I've stopped eating mangoes from today.

(Music Playing)

(Phone Ringing)

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, hold on.

Adi... phone.

Phone.

Yes, it's me. - What are they saying?

Hang on... Yes, tell me. Sure, I'll send three photographs.

Okay... alright. Thank you very much.

What is it, son?

I've come first, dad! - Congratulations, son.

It was one-sided. I got the most marks.

You will come first, son! Just watch.

I'll win, dad! - You will win, son. You are...

Sorry...

I entered your house, by mistake.

You embraced me, by mistake.

You called me Daddy, by mistake.

You proved how much you love your daddy, by mistake.

No way. In my excitement I entered, else who wants to come in this house?

And, I don't love you.

For that matter, even I don't love you.

I'm not happy either. - Why would you be happy? You've lost!

Hardly matters. What worries me is that I've lost a part-time servant.

You won't work for me anymore. - I won't even stay in that outhouse.

Oh! I'll have to find a servant to keep the outhouse clean.

Besides, it's hard to find honest servants.

So right! It's even harder for me, since I'm looking for a special servant.

A servant called Ishwar Chandra.

Employ him, Adi.

At least he'll remind you of me.

No way. I won't even let you inside my house.

Cancel. Let's cancel this new game.

Let me in. At least, to play with your children.

C'mon. - I hate you, dad!

I just hate you.

I can never be a responsible father. Isn't that you what you always said?

I promise, I'll prove you wrong. My son will never ask me...

"Why did you sire me if you had no means to rear me?"

I'll give him all the joys. I'll give him everything. I will...

Why am I telling you all this? What would you know...

about a father's love for his child? You will never understand.

True, because I didn't sire you, I plucked you out of a mango tree.

So what it means to be a father... - You have no idea at all!

I agree I was irresponsible.

But who was responsible for it? You were.

I only wanted to hold your finger to walk steadily...

But you gladly gave me your arm.

Who was judged later?

I was. That, I strayed, I'm spoilt.

If only I was left to stand on my feet.

You always hoisted me on your shoulders and showed me the world below.

I won't do that with my son. I'll give him a good upbringing.

Still if he is spoilt or strays, I'll give him time to come around.

Unlike you, I won't drive him and his pregnant wife out.

I won't consider him as my enemy and humiliate him.

And I'll never try to separate him from his wife

It was so cheap of you, dad.

I hate you!

Try to swap places with me, at least try.

You'll know how it hurts.

I'd be glad to be in your shoes, Adi.

But how can I ask you to put yourself in mine?

Why not?

You are right, son.

You're right.

I've been unfair to you.

I played the biggest part in misguiding you. I accept.

I should've handled you with patience...

given you more time... - Goodbye, dad.

I want nothing.

Neither your defence, nor your time.

To give you time, don't I myself need time?

Don't cast me away from your life, son.

As it is, I'm leaving... for good.

(Music Playing)

Thank you.

Here are some extra passes. If you want to invite someone...

My parents are coming.

Anyone else...? - Your parents.

Invite Ma.

And daddy? - I don't want to invite him.

Will she come alone? Has she ever gone out without him?

(Device Beeping)

Pooja... Adi...

he must be waiting for you.

Have I ever gone out without you?

You'll have to get into the habit, Sumi.

Must get into the habit.

(Coughing)

You'll have to fight it out! Tonight is Adi's final round.

Don't you want to see him win?

I want to go, Sumi.

I...

I have very little time.

I want to see Adi once.

(Coughing)

(Ambulance Siren)

Nobody is answering the phone. - I'm not inviting him.

If he wants to come, he can. But I'm not inviting him.

Okay. - Why did you disconnect?

What's the point when you are not interested?

If he wants to come, fine. I'm not stopping him.

Really? Such a big heart.

If you could do dad a favour, why don't you do me a favour?

Try to be honest with yourself.

It's the greatest day of your life, and you want him by your side.

Just admit it. It's not a big deal.

(Coughing)

Sumi, I want to see Adi win.

I want to play with his baby.

You will, certainly.

We're fighting against time.

We have to beat time.

This is cheating, friend.

Who will I fight with now?

Don't hurt me, Natu-bhai.

You will find many to fight with. I'm nothing.

Call on daddy's cellphone.

What do I say? - Ask him to come, at least to bless.

I'll tell him, there are extra passes, he can come if he wants to.

Okay, call.

I'll say that.

(Phone Ringing)

Yes, son? - You're coming, aren't you, mama?

Yes, son.

And daddy? - You don't object, do you?

I don't, but... - Talk to daddy.

Is he nearby? - Yes. Shall I give him the phone?

Yes.

Hang on.

Adi, wants to talk to me.

Hello. Bloody obstinate wastrel!

I know you're going to become a great star.

But I won't take any of your starry airs.

You can come if you... - I'll come even if you deny me.

What will you do?

Okay, bye. - Son...

Son...

I love you.

Will you let me play with your baby?

Bye.

I just hate him, Pooja.

He always does this to me

But I can't live without him.

You know why? Because I love him.

(Music Playing)

(Ambulance Siren)

We are at the venue.

We've reached the venue.

Will you manage?

Adi learnt that trait from me, not from you.

Don't worry. I must tell him.

(Coughing)

Shawl?

(Coughing)

All the best, son. - Thank you, Ma.

God bless you.

May you win.

Can I give you my blessings?

Go ahead.

Let it hurt you more when I win before the world.

Moron.

You're going to become a father.

Ask yourself.

Can any father be hurt seeing his son win?

All the best.

Actually, this is for your baby...

No, thanks.

(Crying)

Please.

He brought the doll purposely, so that I...

Nothing would've gone wrong had you accepted it.

Get a hold on yourself, Natu-bhai.

My disease is just nothing.

Your grandfather must've had two cancers.

Enough now.

If Adi sees you, all hell will break lose. Please.

Wipe your tears. - I tell you, let alone me...

no father can compare himself with Ishwar Chandra.

For the sake of their children, parents give up their lives.

But you have even defied death.

I could achieve nothing in life.

But before I die...

if I could set an example for Adi, it'll be worth it.

So that his son calls Adi the best father in the world.

If something happens to me, give this doll to Adi...

Where's the doll?

He has found out, Sumi. - What?

He has found out. - What are you saying?

He must've overheard, Sumi. - Had he heard...

he'd have broken down before you. - That's what I fear. We must...

go inside.

We'll sit at the back.

And now we present contestant number 9, Aditya Thakur.

Respected judges...

dear spectators...

and the millions of people watching this talent contest live...

I know I'll be kicked out of this contest in a few minutes.

But I have to win...

the final race against Ishwar.

He knows!

And that's why, instead of performing, I'd like to place a request before you.

Stop him, Sumi! What's he doing?

What are your doing? - Adi! Adi!

My father wants to see my baby...

before his death.

He's battling against death.

Will each one of you...

please pray to God and dedicate one minute of your lives to my dad?

This boy will ruin everything!

(Coughing)

God cannot turn down the prayers of millions.

Just a minute will be taken from your lives...

but it'll give my father a precious lease of life.

My father will be able to see his grandson.

You must be wondering why you must give away a minute of your life...

just to make my father live.

But if you look at your children playing in your courtyards...

you'll probably find the answer.

My daddy...

makes toys.

A baby smiles on seeing the rattler hung up on the cradle.

My father designs the first smile of the baby.

The baby claps when the monkey-toy jumps...

and he is upset when the monkey falls to the ground.

The mother then explains...

"Son, this is what life is all about."

"So if you happen to fall, don't be upset."

"Rise, and walk again."

My father designs some upbringing.

In this barbaric world, my father fills babies with innocence.

If he has in some way helped in the upbringing of your children...

then in return, please give him a minute of your lives.

Whether my father will be able to see his grandson's face or not...

is in your hands.

The hands that you have joined before God...

Dad!

(Crying)

My darling!

You think only you can act?

I did some acting too somehow. - I love you, dad.

I love you.

We've got our son back, Sumi.

We've got our Adi back, Sumi.

You don't look good when you are crying.

Wipe your tears. Here's the handkerchief.

Wipe your tears.

Handkerchief in your pocket?

Sumi, all my worries are over.

Your son has become responsible.

Pooja, look, my Adi...

who used to trouble everyone until they cried...

Has learnt to wipe my tears.

Dada!

You have yet to see your grandson.

I have challenged Time. We can't lose.

We have to win.

I love you, dada. - My son!

This... for my grandson...

My grandson.

(Crying)

My son

My heir.

Sumi, I've got my grandson.

Dada, we've won.

Everyone prayed for us.

We've won, dada. - No, son.

You've won.

You put your dreams at stake, just to fulfill my dream.

You won.

The credit for our victory goes to the people.

They wholeheartedly prayed for us.

Know what, dada?

Even today we have two sacks full of letters at home.

Two sacks! Two sacks full of letters in a postman's house!

What do we call the baby, dad?

Hang on. There are still some challenges left.

Know what, dad? From now on, Adi will concentrate...

only on his career in movies.

I and Pooja will manage your factory.

And what will happen to this...?

I promise you, everyday I shall wear flowers in my hair...

Apply a dot of sandalwood paste on my forehead and go to office.

Laxman...

Come here. Don't you have any questions today?

When will you return?

I will... I will return.

As Adi's daughter.

And we'll go to watch my movies.

Hardly matters if people watch or not, we'll go.

No! I'll go to watch late night shows with my boyfriend.

But you must return home before seven, else...

Get lost! - Else, you'll see the worst of me.

Get lost! After the show, I'll return only after having dinner with him.

Keep waiting for me, It's your turn now.

Ishu!

Pooja, apply the mark on him.

Ishwar, christen him.

The grandfather will now christen his grandson.

In sandalwood, the baby is bathed...

may joys abound in his life...

May the world bow at his feet.

His grandfather christens him...

Ishu, Christen him.

Name him.

Ishwar is his name.
